Audio Mastering Course

Our Mastering Course is designed for today’s multi-genre modern engineer.  While being completely focused on mastering “in-the-box” (in a computer), we provide you with the ability to achieve that commercial sound through the understanding of various analog circuits and effect processors.  You will leave with a fully mastered track, and all the steps to continue improving and forwarding your abilities for years to come.

Seattle students take the Mastering Class in a small group at our studio, or live online in the same session with the same instructor, using our specialist music collaboration software, Muse. The city has a deep electronic and independent music scene, and our teachers are part of it. Discover qualities that distinguish us, here.
